Why is orthodontics so expensive?

All of this gets factored into the final price. Why do braces cost so much? Because there is a lot of work that goes into giving you the best care. Without it, you couldn't get the continual attention you and your teeth need to complete your treatment.

Which is the most expensive orthodontic treatment?

They may be uncomfortable for some due to the tongue constantly pushing or rubbing against the metal. Lingual braces are by far the best option if concealment is a priority. These are usually the most expensive option, with the cost of braces $8,000 to $10,000.

What is the average age for orthodontics?

In general, there is no certain age for kids to get braces, but it ranges from 7 to 14 years old. Usually all the permanent teeth come in around age 12 and that is ideally when your kid would be ready for braces. But sometimes, kids need to go through what is called “phase I orthodontic treatment”.
